The Argus is recruiting new members, today at 2 pm at the Argus office above Broad Street Books. All grades are welcome, no experience required, just interest in making news/opinions/etc. at Wes.
Date: Sunday, September 7th
Time: 2:00 pm
Place: Argus office (2nd floor above Broad Street Bookstore)
The Red and Black Calling Society is hiring. They "reach out to our alumni and fundraise for Wesleyan." Self-described as "one of the most sought after jobs with one of the highest hourly wages" on campus, Red and Black merely requires that you cold-call alumni and politely request that they send us large amounts of cash. An essential service, I suppose.
Interested? Attend one of the following sessions in PAC 002:
Date: Sunday, Sept. 7
Time: 5:00 PM
Date: Monday, Sept. 8
Time: 8:00 PM
Date: Tuesday, Sept. 9
Time: 8:00 PM
Work-study and non-work-study students are equally accepted. Contact Sarah Bell at sbell@wes for more info.
Avi Smith '09 sends in the following info:
Heard of Birthright? It's a free trip to Israel, happening over winter break, and you're eligible as long as you have at least one Jewish parent and haven't been on a peer trip to Israel since you were 12. The trip will probably be all Wesleyan students and their friends.It's a pretty sweet (and totally free) trip full of interesting dialogue, and Avi and Rachel are pretty much going to be the greatest leaders ever. I highly recommend it.
Registration for Birthright is Sept 10th, a week from Wednesday, so if you're thinking of going, you need to act fast!! They are having fewer and fewer Birthright trips each year because of rising gas prices and the dollar going down, so this is the year to go!
Informational meetings:
- Sunday, Sept 7, 3pm, the Bayit (157 Church St) and
- Thursday, September 4, 7:30 pm also at the Bayit
You only need to come to one meeting, and bring your laptop if you can.
If you're considering going at all, you should come to the meeting. registration is soon and fills up fast!
If you have more questions, check out www.israelexperts.com/taglit or
email Avi Smith(aesmith) or Rachel Berkowitz (rberkowitz).
